Re: Live from Springnationals in Houston (Baytown)

Ok sorry been so busy. We won class and that was the first time ever. My daughter in law and granddaughters got to see their daddy win a wally. We raced Aaron Stanfield rd 1 and lost. He got us at the divisional too. He is tough. They ran all the sportsman today because tomorrow looks to be a washout. I have pictures I will post later. Conditions are still good here. I know my engine builder went more than -1.20 under in his new Copo. Not sure who else did. Conditions this morning were ripe for it. More later....

Yep. J Allen 1.21 under, WOW!

What was the famous quote from a few years back about the Houston pits, AKA The Serve-Pro Nationals? Was it "This is just one big bucket of ........."?

"This is all a big bag of F****." That phrase was coined by a well known D-1 racer.

Ok guys sorry but we had to pack up and leave. My wife called in a panic her dad Ahad a stroke and they found a mass in his brain.So my son and I had to head to San Antonio. Sorry for the lousy reporting. We made 5 runs in a short amount of time so we were busy. I’ll post the pictures I took tomorrow.....good luck to those still in. Ed

Re: Live from Springnationals in Houston (Baytown)

Looks like the weather is ok for now. It’s very cloudy this morning. As Ed said, yesterday was very busy. Three qualifiers in stock and super stock (including class) and only 4 sportsman classes didn’t leave much down time. Scheduled start at 9am this morning. Tune in on all access or live timing. It should be another marathon with 3 rounds to run in each class in 3 hours or so.

Ed great job thank you. Keeping your family in our prsyers
